Hex Nut Hallow Tube Hoop Earrings - Silver
Hex Nut Hallow Tube Hoop Earrings - Silver
Couldn't load pickup availability
A bold blend of industrial design and refined craftsmanship, these hoops are inspired by the precision of my engineer grandpa and his influence on my design approach. Reimagining the humble hex nut as jewelry, each pair is crafted with a hollow tube structure for maximum impact without the weight.
Polished to a mirror-like finish (no really, we basically made mirrors), every pair is a labor of love. The hexagonal shape honors my grandpa’s engineering background, reflecting precision, innovation, and attention to detail.
These earrings are for you—someone who values quality and seeks a statement piece that’s as unique as you are.
—Yuting, designer and founder of Work Piece
- Rhodium plated brass with bright blue Swarovski ® crystals

- About 1 ⅛’’(Outside Diameter) x 1 ⅜’’ x ¼’’
- In CM: 3cm x 3.5cm x 0.6cm
- Each hoop weighs 8 grams (considered medium weight), about the weight of 2 raspberries.

The Ultimate Metal Guide
Here are the most commonly used metals in jewelry making:
Stainless Steel
We only use 316L stainless steel, a superior choice for jewelry since it resists general corrosion. Stainless steel in its original color (silver) will maintain that color for life. For maximum durability, we use PVD coating for our gold finish, the same coating used for gold stainless steel watchmaking. However, due to the nature of this metal, both gold and silver colors usually look duller or darker compared to other common metals. Therefore, we love using this metal as a supportive material to pair with beads or CZ crystals, creating pool-friendly styles that are both affordable and practical:)
How to take care of your pieces:
You can use a soft brush and warm water mixed with mild liquid soap to deep clean your jewelry and restore its shine.
14K/18K Gold or Rhodium Plated Brass
Gold and rhodium-plated brass are the most commonly used materials for fashion jewelry. They are not only affordable but also replicate the bright colors of those precious metals. Many waterproof jewelry brands paint it black, but many brands like mine and even luxury brands still love it. It's very handmaking-friendly and more affordable than silver.
The thickness of the plating and proper care determine how fast it tarnishes. In other words, when a piece is well-made and well-taken care of, it can last for many years.
We work closely with the factories we selected and hold the same standard as gold vermeil jewelry to ensure the thickness of the plating and prevent tarnishing.
How to take care of your pieces:
Please keep all jewelry away from water and chemicals such as perfumes, skincare products and liquid hand soap.
In addition, sweat will also corrode the plating, so please avoid wearing this jewelry when you are likely to sweat a lot. We do not recommend wearing this type of jewelry when sleeping. After removing the jewelry, place it in a dry, airtight container to prevent tarnishing (see packaging).
Periodically polish the jewelry with a soft, dry cloth to remove surface grease and grime and restore its original luster.

.925 Sterling Silver
Sterling silver is an excellent material for jewelry making. It is made of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper, which makes it harder and sturdier than pure silver. Sterling silver does tarnish over time, but if proper care is taken, it can last for a life-time.
How to take care of your pieces:
Please avoid contact with water and chemicals, and store your jewelry in dry, sealed containers away from sunlight to slow down oxidation. However, the natural oils in your skin can give silver a beautiful shine and help prevent tarnishing, so please wear your sterling silver pieces often:)
Use a jewelry cleaning cloth to polish the piece when needed. If heavy oxidation occurs, you can use baking soda or toothpaste to clean your piece. Dry it immediately.
*Special note: We do not recommend using silver wash on intentionally oxidized styles as it can degrade the finish. Silver wash also accelerates the oxidation process for your silver piece in the future as it erodes the metal surface! *

14K/ 18K Solid Gold

How to take care of your pieces:
You can use a small brush and warm water to clean the jewelry and keep it shiny.
